Thread: Had my first lucid experience...YES!!!

I literally just woke up a few minutes ago...I had to get on here and post this. After starting lucid dreaming techniques almost two weeks ago, I finally had my first experience performing a reality check and becoming lucid.

I found myself wandering a hotel lobby by myself (I've had a lot of recurring hotel-themed dreams lately) and for some reason, had an urge to do an RC. I tried pushing my finger through my palm, and it was the craziest shit I've ever felt. It was like trying to push my finger through a big wad of bubblegum. I saw it going through and it clicked and I was lucid. However, the excitement killed the dream and woke me up, but I dont even care....this is the biggest step I've made so far. Plus from what I read, I've heard that happens to pretty much everyone the first time.

I was beginning to lose hope and wonder if I could really do this myself. But now that I've actually experienced performing a RC and becoming lucid, its such a breath of fresh air...cant wait to go to sleep tonight! hahaha
